... and from that pile of odd looking boards - a boat begins to emerge. Almost a miracle to watch that occur in front of your eyes.

Ben,

I am really enjoying watching your build (and learning a lot from it ) :D

It is clear to me you are an accomplished wood worker and i am seeing some methods here that I haven't seen before, but now, having seen them, they make a lot of sense to me.

If only this thread had existed before I built my Wadefish. I might have done a much better job of it. Thank you!

For what my opinion might be worth, You are doing an extra-ordinary job of this and I think you are going to love this boat. 8)
Regards,
Mick
